Legislation Passed Extending Eligibility Dates For Unemployment Benefit Extensions

Legislation was passed extending eligibility dates for benefit extensions to week ending April 4, 2010. There will not be a break in your benefits, as long as you continue claiming weekly benefits in the usual manner. You do not have to file a new claim unless the system advises you to do so.
